Xia Rongxian looked melancholy and said: "To be honest, Mr. Chen, my father led a caravan out of the city to collect medicine six months ago and was accidentally injured. After he came back, his injury worsened and he became ill. Now I want to sell the chamber of commerce to my father.
For treatment, as long as someone can cure dad's disease, I will give him the Chamber of Commerce for free."
"Sister, is your father seriously ill?"
Gu Qianxue couldn't help but interrupt and asked.
Xia Rongxian nodded lightly and said sadly: "Dad was just a complication caused by his injury at first, but then it got worse for some unknown reason. Now he is unconscious and dying. I hired several doctors from the nearby medicine shop at a high price.
Even the alchemists have no clue. Now we are at the end of our rope. If we don’t ask an expert to treat it as soon as possible, dad will definitely die."
"Then what happened to Grandmaster Ze that your uncle and cousin were talking about just now?"
Gu Qianxue asked doubtfully.
Xia Rongxian hesitated for a moment and said: "I can never afford to hire someone of the level of a third-grade alchemist. But I don't know what route my uncle and cousin took to actually claim to be able to contact Grandmaster Ze of the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce.
, and you can ask Grandmaster Ze to come over and treat my father."
As he said that, a trace of anger appeared on Xia Rongxian's face, "But, they are using this to threaten me. Unless I agree to transfer the Rongxian Chamber of Commerce to them and marry my cousin, they will help contact Grandmaster Ze."
"So? Do you want to agree to them?"
Gu Qianxue asked with her eyes wide open.
Xia Rongxian took a deep breath: "No, I will never agree to it even if I die!"
"You were right not to agree."
Su Chen said, "They just promised to help you contact Grandmaster Ze, but in fact, for alchemists of third grade and above, you can't impress them with money at all. They are not interested in ordinary silver coins, but what they are interested in is
There are only rare alchemy materials and treasures from heaven and earth."
"In other words, even if you agree to their conditions, they will only help you contact Grandmaster Ze in the end, but the other party will probably not agree to come for treatment."
"Thank you Mr. Chen for the reminder."
Xia Rongxian bowed her knees gratefully and said.
"Sister, let me tell you, what do you expect Grandmaster Ze to do? He's just looking for something far away. You know, my brother Chen is Dan... wu wu wu."
Gu Qianxue was only halfway through speaking when Li Shitong covered her mouth from behind.
Now that Su Chen is using a false identity, he naturally won't reveal his title of Alchemy King casually.
"Little sister, what did you just say?" Xia Rongxian asked doubtfully.
Su Chen smiled and said, "What she means is that I am also an alchemist. If you sell the Chamber of Commerce to me, I will help your father treat his illness for free."
"You? Are you an alchemist?"
Xia Rongxian looked at Su Chen carefully. Although Su Chen was wearing a mask at the moment, he could tell from his eyes that he was young and his eyes were clear. They were obviously the eyes of a teenager.
At such a young age, Xia Rongxian didn't think that the other party could be an alchemist. Even if he was, he was at most a first-grade alchemist. He had invited several first-grade alchemists over before, but they all failed.
Therefore, Xia Rongxian did not hold out much hope.
Seeing her expression, Su Chen felt enlightened and said, "Let's go and see what's going on with your father first."
When Xia Rongxian heard this, she looked at Su Chen a few more times. In fact, to be fair, she was not satisfied with this sudden appearance.
The young man who came had no ill feelings, and what he saw in his eyes was sincerity.
So, after pondering for a moment, Xia Rongxian nodded and said: "Then you come in!"
With that said, Xia Rongxian ordered the guys to clean up the mess in the store, and then led Su Chen and the others out of the lobby, through the corridor, and to the backyard.
Pushing open the door of the main room in the backyard, Xia Rongxian called softly: "Daddy, I'm back."
I saw a dying middle-aged man lying on a bed in the room. His face was gray, his eyes were closed, and there was only a wisp of breath left.
Xia Rongxian was already calm, but when she saw the middle-aged man like this, her eyes turned red again. She blinked her beautiful eyes, looked at Su Chen and said, "This is my father."
Su Chen nodded, sat on a chair next to the bed, first diagnosed Xia Rongxian's father's pulse, and then used his soul power to check the acupuncture points all over his body.
From the beginning to the end, Xia Rongxian has been watching from the side, with doubts in her bright eyes. Su Chen's skillful techniques and confident attitude are not like those of an ordinary young man. Could it be that he really
Alchemist?
A quarter of an hour later, Su Chen finished the inspection.
Xia Rongxian immediately asked: "Mr. Chen, how is my father?"
"not too good."
Su Chen shook his head and said, "He was originally just injured, but someone didn't want him to recover and poisoned him. Moreover, this poison would not kill him immediately, but would consume him faster.
His lifespan will slowly be exhausted and he will die. Moreover, during this period, due to the effect of the poison, he will remain unconscious."
"Poison?"
When Xia Rongxian heard Su Chen's words, he couldn't help but gasped, "You said, someone poisoned my father?"
"That's right."
Su Chen said calmly, "He suffered only ordinary injuries, but he became like this after being poisoned. This poison is called 'Yi Ye Ku', and it is a very unpopular poison. Even third-level alchemists
They may not be able to identify it, so the alchemists you invited before all returned in vain."
"Then can you cure it?"
Xia Rongxian didn't necessarily believe what Su Chen said, but she still asked. Anyway, she would not lose a piece of meat by asking.
"I still said that if I can be cured, sell this chamber of commerce to me."
Su Chen said.
"Okay, I hereby promise that if you can be cured, I will package the Chamber of Commerce, its facilities, employees, and goods and sell them to you for five hundred thousand taels of silver."
Xia Rongxian said decisively, anyway, her original plan was to sell the Chamber of Commerce to save her father. Now if Su Chen can cure his father and sell the Chamber of Commerce for 500,000 taels of silver, then why not do it.
"Give me a copy of all the medicinal materials on this list."
Su Chen wrote a list and handed it to Xia Rong Xiandao.
Xia Rongxian took the list and looked at it, and saw that they were all relatively common medicinal materials, which were available at the elixir counter of Rongxian Chamber of Commerce. He immediately walked quickly to the front hall, and after a while, he grabbed a pack of medicinal materials and came back.
"Use the bathtub to get a bucket of hot water."
Su Chen ordered again.
Xia Rongxian did as she was told again and ordered the waiter to bring hot water. In the process, her eyes were still curiously watching Su Chen's actions, and she saw that Su Chen had already begun to refine the hot water with a small bronze cauldron.
The materials came. Xia Rongxian looked melancholy and said: "To be honest, Mr. Chen, my father led a caravan out of the city to collect medicine six months ago and was accidentally injured. After he came back, his injury worsened and he became ill. Now I want to sell the Chamber of Commerce.
To treat daddy, as long as someone can cure daddy’s disease, I will give the Chamber of Commerce to him for free.”
"Sister, is your father seriously ill?"
